Pulut Inti



Hello hello all.....it's been days since i upload something here...been very busy lately with orders of Pulut Kuning...finally today i have some free time to share something with everyone....today i want to share a very simple traditional kuih...Pulut Inti...

Ingredients
1 1/2 cups glutinous rice
1/2 tsp salt
150ml water coconut milk
1 pandan leaf, tied into a knot

Coconut filling
100g palm sugar or gula Melaka
1/4 cup water
1 pandan leaf, knotted
1 cup grated coconut

Banana leaves - cut into 4 x 6 inch, blanched in hot water to soften for folding

Directions
Wash the glutinous rice and strain. Place in a shallow heafproof dish. Mix salt and coconut milk and pour over the rice. Add pandan leaf in the rice and steam till it is cooked for about 20-25 minutes. Check from time to time and stir. Remove from heat.

Coconut filling
Dissolve sugars and simmer until liquid starts to thicken and become syrupy. Add grated coconut and pandan leaf. Cook till the mixture is soft and dry about 10 to 15 minutes. Most of the liquid should have evaporated. Remove from heat and let it cool.

Place 1 tablespoon cooked glutinous rice on banana leaf. Add 1 teaspoon filling on top of the rice. Fold the leaf on either side and tuck both ends under, to enclose the rice, ensure that the top is slightly open to show a bit of the filling.
